[Spoken Intro]
Wait, wait, wait.
Don’t either of you move.
[Music starts]
[Verse 1]
There’s something very strange here
And I need a better view
I’ve seen that look before somewhere
And now I’m seeing two
Not exactly, not the same
But close enough that now I can’t ignore it
The eyes, the face, the way you stand
How did I never see this before?
[Pre-Chorus]
How did I miss it?
How did I not see?
You look completely different
Until you’re next to me
[Chorus]
Rin, Ren, one letter apart
How did I never connect that part?
Different enough when you’re on your own
Put you together and suddenly, oh!
Same little echo, different refrain
Change just one sound and you’ve changed the name
I’ve known one forever, just met the other then
How did I never see Rin in Ren?
[Verse 2]
Your hair is different
Your voice is too
Your expressions aren’t the same
And neither are the things you do
But turn your head like that again
No, Ren, the other way
There! That’s exactly what I mean!
No, you cannot move yet, stay!
[Pre-Chorus]
Maybe it’s the eyes
Maybe it’s the face
Maybe something tiny
I couldn’t see without you in the same place
[Chorus]
Rin, Ren, one letter apart
How did I never connect that part?
Different enough when you’re on your own
Put you together and suddenly, oh!
Same little echo, different refrain
Change just one sound and you’ve changed the name
I’ve known one forever, just met the other then
How did I never see Rin in Ren?
[Bridge]
Rin and Ren
Ren and Rin
Say it twice, it’s obvious
Where do I even begin?
Yes, I know the names sound similar
Thank you, I worked that out
But names don’t explain the matching look
I’m currently freaking out
Same kind of glance
Same little frown
Why is this only obvious
Now you’re both around?
No, I’m not done
Not even close
I need another minute
Maybe several, who knows?
[Final Chorus]
Rin, Ren, one letter apart
Now I can’t unsee every matching part
Not quite the same, not even close
Until you’re together and there it goes
Same little echo, different refrain
One tiny letter rearranges the name
Maybe it’s obvious, maybe it’s been
Right there all along in Rin and Ren
[Outro]
Rin… Ren…
Ren… Rin…
[Spoken]
Seriously.
How did I miss that?
